  • It was an automated system to prevent impersonation accounts which the actual news article this was based off of mentioned.

  • What a shitty click baity article. Not sure who should be more ashamed, the writer, the editor, or anyone who would share it.

  • Before anyone gets confused: Android Auto ≠ Android Automotive

  • It's almost like they're an engineering company.

  • At least the AI doesn't mean to lie to you, unlike the intention of the rest of the site.

  • Yeah, if my wife didn't think other people deserved the right to exist it would put quite the strain on our relationship.

  • While there's an epidemic of vitamin D deficiency, I doubt it out weighs the economic meat grinder that is modern life.

  • Karakeep. It will throw an error if a website is down and you won't get tags.

  • There are some, but there are several reasons that you haven't seen them about.

    1. The people who spend the most on tattoos are doing so because they are art made by an artist. I'm not sure if you know many people in the scene, but these aren't the people getting flash tattoos at a random shop. They plan their tattoos, they pick their artists, and they spend many hours trusting another human to permanently alter their body.
    2. The most common type of printers in the world print on a 2D plane, even most 3D printers are printing on a nearly flat 2D plane one layer at a time. The human body is largely not a 2D plane.
    3. Human skin varies, ask any tattoo artist. You can't use the same pressure or the same type of needle on every person. And it takes people with experience to identify this. People who pay the most for their tattoos expect this expertise.

    Those last two reasons are not impossible solves in any sense, but they do greatly increase the cost and complexity of a machine that can automatically tattoo a person without injuring them.

    I'll also throw a number 4 in here. Speaking for the US, unless you've made a name for yourself tattoo artists are largely exploited here. They are mostly misclassified as independent contractors but then treated as employees. They are under valued and under paid.

    So, how inexpensive can you make a machine to both purchase and maintain, while also being easy enough to undercut the already exploited labor in your average tattoo shop?

  • No problem, just wanted to make sure people can find it because it's a good one.

  • Yeah give me Ublock or give me death.

  • Best Trek Season 1 episode of any series? I think there's an argument to be made. This is the episode I think hooked my kid on Trek.

  • Frog in pot is my guess. I haven't watched ad supported television for like 20 years now and it is so jarring when I'm in someone's house and an ad comes on.

  • I'm guessing the angles are not playing nice with the mechanisms. It was designed down the the penny so there's probably not a lot of extra torque in the system to compensate for new angles and friction when you mess with the layout.

  • Suspend your AMS from the top of the enclosure after putting it back together.

  • I love that AI has made people overanalyze every piece of corporate art and that now any sign of cut corners is proof of AI.

  • Does this mean Graphene is dead? Probably the real reason they would do this is to kill Graphene.
